Further Information

DESCRIPTION
Listed Grade II, this attractive and light filled end of terrace townhouse forms part of a charming street for which Cheltenham is so well-regarded. Nestled within a part of the road that has a real cosmopolitan feel, it has become a sought after address over recent years offering the very best of town living yet a stone’s throw from Sandford Park and The Lido. Number 65 has been a much-treasured family home for many years and as such, would now benefit from a comprehensive renovation.

Spanning c2420 Sq Ft of accommodation, the property is deceptively spacious with grand proportions and well planned, practical accommodation. The house is arranged over three floors, with the lower ground floor a separately accessed level comprising a bedroom, office, sitting room and a large W/C, which could easily be changed to a bathroom. With some alterations, a kitchen could be created in the office, as it is wired and plumbed in preparation, should a prospective owner wish to create a self-contained apartment. As the original staircase linking the main house is functioning, it would also make excellent overflow accommodation, or as guest quarters. There is a private patio to the lower ground with an outside privy in addition to a coal hole.


The primary entrance is via a few steps into the hallway, with the double reception room to one side and a kitchen at the rear, with doors opening to a rear glass vestibule overlooking the garden. The staircase rises to the three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor, which are all generous in size.

In all, a very special house offering excellent potential and various opportunities with a beautiful town garden.


INFORMAL TENDER - The property is for sale by Informal Tender and as such, all offers are to be made by midday on 27th May 2022. Unless previously sold.

OUTSIDE
Unusually for town living the property has a larger than average garden which is both mature and attractive. Being the end of this pretty terrace, there is side access and the benefit of a garage, which requires a rebuild, or removal to create parking spaces.

SITUATION
Much of the attraction is the position of the house, set back from the road forming part of a small, elegant parade within strolling distance to the town centre and around the corner from Sandford Park and The Lido. Cheltenham is a fashionable and cultural town, playing host to several highly acclaimed festivals including, Music, Literature and Jazz. London Road is within a short stroll of the town centre, enjoying all Cheltenham’s cosmopolitan offerings. There are exceptional schools within walking distance including, The Cheltenham Ladies’ College, Cheltenham College and St Edwards Prep & Senior. The state sector is also strong, with Balcarras and Charlton Kings Juniors within close proximity. Communications from this area are also excellent with easy access to a series of motorway links including A40 London Road and M5.
